Dayot Upamecano has been from Munich since the beginning of July. Hasan Salihamidzic now revealed an interesting anecdote about the negotiations with the defender.
Bayern Munich’s sports director Hasan Salihamidzic told an anecdote about the signing of the French central defender from RB Leipzig as part of the presentation of the newcomers Omar Richards and Dayot Upamecano.
Accordingly, Salihamidzic experienced a moment in conversation with Upamecano when signing his contract that he “has never experienced”.
“We sat in the room where he signed his contract. He put the pen down and said he wanted to give a little speech. He said how proud he was to play for Bayern. How good he was in front of everyone That’s exactly what we expect in front of the team, ”said Salihamidzic.
